Locomotive #666 (True story, click that link) better find its way on the Lakeshore line. I want a red carpet, a clown on stilts, a town crier, a pony with a top hat and a personal escort from CSA Mario (or Tyler) onto that train for its inaugural run.
Here's the official word from Metrolinx:
Attention reporters, editors and producers:
Metrolinx issued a news release today about our order for 65 new GO Train (bi-level) coaches, with two options for an additional 75 coaches, to help allow growth and increased ridership across the GO Transit system.
The news release is copied below, and also available on CNW’s website at these links:

are the new trains going to be flood proof?
One comment CJ. #666 isn't a coach, it's a locomotive.
That being said, watch the nutcases begin their protesting and the listen to the shrill howling of the brainless credophiles about this number.
It will be amusing.
Wait - they sent out a press release about a press release?
Hi George
Thank you for pointing this out. I have corrected the error
im suprised go didnt skip that number....
I wanna ride with locomotive #666. I'm not afraid!
Never mind hell in a handbasket ... hell in a GO locomotive.
Where are all these new GO riders gonna park? Oshawa? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I know you posted this a while back ... Metrolinx didn't buy new Loco's ... they bought new BiLevel Cars (Series VIII [8]).
I sent a photograph to Cindy, that I saw on Transit.Toronto.on.ca ... anyway here's the new bilevels (a concept anyway)
